Hah, use Steam or Xfire :D
Not the best!
I hope nothing else will ever come out like this.... EVER!!!
Tried to play GTA IV online once, with 3 other friends, but only two of us could join each other, and if the ones that couldn't join the host game, hosted a game thereselves, we couldn't join them.
Also, what nullability says is right, the MS points system is stupid. And why can't you just pay with the gamerpoints you earned while unlocking achievements of the game you want the DLC from or something. Or directly pay with money like on Steam.
sarcasm/ Yet, another great invention from Microsoft. /sarcasm
Obnoxious interface, and buzzwords like "gamertag" and "rep" make me gag. It's a real negative for me if a game relies on this for multiplayer. And forcing me to buy 1000 Microsoft Points for an 800-point product (like Fallout 3 DLC) is a joke. Seriously, why don't they just make it as easy as possible to buy something? Instead they make you jump through hoops with their overpriced "points." No thank you.
I don't want to know what the hell is doing Microsoft when someone play GTA IV or any other game with Game Live, but I'm thinking is not necessary it existence.
Come on people, the interface is a joke.
My thoughts are detailed here: http://gshblog.blogspot.com/2009/02/games-for-windows-live-epic-failure_02.html
It's getting better, it sucked earlier but they've improved it. A con for them and a pro for us is that every Games for Windows LIVE game keys work for all others, they're universal.
LOL @tapo
Well come on now, how can it be bad?
I actually wish this didn't exist.
Okay but not great.
Meh, right now it's hardly worth looking at.
